    Hardest Leg workout can you handle it

    I respect anyone who attempts this leg workout. I have never done a workout so tough in my life. If you want huge legs you will get them in no time with this workout.

    (TRI-SET)
    Lunges set of 10 (no rest)
    Leg curls set of 15(no rest)
    Squat set of 10(rest 1 minute)
    (go through this 5 times)

    That is the workout


    Anyone have any other killer leg workouts?

    depending on how much rest you get after those supersets...it seems like the hack squats are the killer..after those 3 sets of 50 i wouldn't be able to move

    1 set of squats.

    50 reps. with a weight that makes human beings quit at 15 reps. but you find a way to get to 50

    then 1 set of stiff legged deadlifts for hams.

    calf raises
    done.

    That's child's play.

    Try my 20 rep routine having pre-exhausted your legs before.

    Now THAT'S a killer!

    Yeah, Swole's routine is alot harder.

    I upped the reps to 25 for 4 sets 3 days ago and my legs are still torched. Literally today when i was doing DB shoulder press it hurt like hell to the rest the DB's on my quads for a few seconds.

    Can't remember or find the link to SC's leg routine, but if it's the one I think he's talking about it goes something like this:
    Leg Extensions 5 sets X 15 reps, Leg Curls 5 sets X 15 reps
    Superset the above two exercises. Then after exhausting your legs with these go on to squats and do 5 sets X 15 reps.
    I will try to find the link to it.

    Posted by Anteros in the thread:

    I'm using it, works great, can't walk for a good 3 days after, already making a huge difference...neway it went something like this, SC can fine-tune the details that I'm going to try to remember...

    start with 4 or 5 sets of leg extensions and curls at high rep:

    the leg extensions/curls are together one set, thus you do a set of extensions lets say then quickly move on to curls, then rest for about 2 minutes...thats one set..

    do this with a weight you can do about 15 reps of , at a "3/2 tempo"...3 seconds down, 2 seconds up.

    this will get your legs ready for the 5 sets of squatsfrom personal experience, at this point you're already cursing SC and the ground he walks on)
    ...newho

    5 sets of squats at a weight you can do 15-20 reps of, also at a 3/2 tempo...SC mentioned that u wanna do a weight that u can physically do 15 of, and mentally get to 20 with...thus the last 5 should be so hard and painful that you'll wanna... (insert some funny exaggeration here)...

    he mentioned a little about proper squat technique among other tidbits I won't try to remember....the main points I remembered were to make sure you're pushing with ur heels, have ur feet slightly more then shoulder width if u like, with toes very slightly pointed outwards...the 3 seconds down will obviously be nice and slow, and the 2 seconds up will be somewhat of an explosion...

    he also mentioned that "ass to the floor" technique is bs and you really only need to go down to a 90 degree angle at the knee pretty much...make sure you feel the force in the hip and not the lower back...if u do, focus the push on the heel of ur foot, as stated above..oh and make sure you dont bend ur back at the top of the rep, keep it nice and straight and squeeze the hell out of ur legs at the top.

    thats pretty much what I remember, it works great, burns like hell, and I'd recommend you bring some sugared/salted water or gatorade etc if u dont already...cause I lose like 5 pounds of water everytime i do this routine, you'll wanna make sure your electrolyte levels dont fall too low, almost passed out...

    neway, thanks SC, fix what you need to...enjoy everyone

    4-6 rep hack squat supersetted with a weighted sissy squats drop set
    rest a minute,
    10-12 rep cluster set (do a rep, wait 10 seconds, do a rep) partial rep leg press (go down half way) supersetted with leg extension (10-12) with 3 second statics at the top
    repeat 3 times

    This is works just the quadriceps, hitting them at both ends of their ROM. Similar idea to supersetting spider curls with preacher curls.

    We talking for building stregth or bodybuilding?

    Strength: 3 sets of leg extentions
    1 set of 20 rep squats with as much weight you can do 10 reps and fail

    Body building: 2 sets of leg extentions
    1 set of squats
    2 sets of leg curls

    One set looks like this: Choose a weight you can do no more than 10 reps before failure. Do the 10 reps and then do another 8. You'll need someone to help, did I menton that? When you can't move your legs to complete a rep you hold in a static position until you start to slide backwards...too which your partner assists you just enough to get ot moving in the right direction.
    Don't stop on that 8th forced rep...now drop the weight by 30% and do as many reps as you can until you completely fail, then do eight more reps with the help of your partner...you're almost finished with the first set so hang in there....now drop the weight another 30% and do as many reps as you can till failure and then do the forced rep portion. First set is done! Now all you have to do fet through another set like that then move over to squats. To do squats load the bar with everyting you cna handle and do ten reps....now try with everything you have to get four more reps.....squats are finished. Now do the leg curls just like the leg extentions for two sets and you are finished......you'll want to lay on the ground for a while and your legs are not going to be willing to do a damned thing for a good while and the soreness should go away around the f5th or 6th day after. But it's a hell of a workout!

    Don't be surprised if you toss your cookies during or after the workout.
